The 20th annual CLAW takes place in Los Angeles over Thanksgiving weekend

Thousands of hot leather men from around the world will be under one spectacular roof in downtown Los Angeles this Thanksgiving weekend, November 24-28.  

The pandemic rescheduled and relocated CLAW 21 includes more than 200 events and exhibitors and unlimited opportunities for life changing hook-ups and life affirming experiences.   

Some highlights include:

• 20,000 sq. ft. Vendor area led by Mr-S-Leather from San Francisco.  Black Friday will never be the same!

• More than 100 Skills and Education sessions, including Bondage, Power Dynamics, SM, Sex, Community and Health

• Dance parties, dungeon parties, sex parties and an ABDL playground

• Banquets, entertainment, speed dating, auctions and much, much more!

Ordinarily held in Cleveland (and in April), the 20th annual CLAW will be at the extraordinary Westin Bonaventure Hotel.    

Many Los Angeles based organizations are part of this year’s event, including the LA Leather Coalition, Avatar LA, Payasos, Tom of Finland Foundation, Rough Trade Gear, Eagle LA and the Bullet.     

CLAW is a volunteer-driven non-profit organization that has donated almost one million dollars to other community charities.

Proof of COVID-19 vaccination is required to attend all CLAW events.  

Hotel rooms at the Bonaventure are available through October 23 at a very special $139/rate.  Run packages are $215 in advance.  Volunteers packages are $25.
